Nearly every time you see him, he's laughing, or at least smiling. And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He's the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel Prize winner, and an increasingly popular speaker and statesman. What's more, he'll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that "the very motion of our life is towards happiness." How to get there has always been the question. He's tried to answer it before, but he's never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the message across in a context we can easily understand. Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and discouragement. Together with Dr. Cutler, he explores many facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the pursuit of wealth, to illustrate how to ride through life's obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace.

De kunst van geluk op het werk

In their 1998 book, His Holiness the Dalai Lama and co-author Howard C. Cutler, M.D., delve into how inner development fosters happiness. In their follow-up, they explore a subject impacting millions: the relationship between work and overall happiness. This accessible book addresses critical questions such as "Where does work fit into our quest for happiness?" and "How does work satisfaction influence life satisfaction?" Presented as a modern Socratic dialogue, Cutler engages the Dalai Lama on the challenges and rewards of the workplace. They discuss themes like work and identity, financial success, the Buddhist idea of "right livelihood," and transforming workplace dissatisfaction. Initially, the insights may seem straightforward, but the Dalai Lama's profound wisdom and sensitivity shine through. He emphasizes that fundamental human values—kindness, tolerance, compassion, honesty, and forgiveness—are essential for true happiness. Through clear examples, he demonstrates how applying these qualities to work-related challenges can help navigate difficult situations. Acknowledging that not all problems can be resolved, the Dalai Lama offers sound advice, advocating for balance and self-awareness. He wisely notes that relying solely on work for satisfaction is a mistake, regardless of how fulfilling it may be.
